Venezuela's opposition announced today it would not participate in April 22 presidential elections without guarantees that it would be free and fair.
"Do not count on the Democratic Unity Roundtable (MUD), or the people, to endorse what until now is only a fraudulent and illegitimate simulation of the presidential election," oppositon coordinator Angel Oropeza told a press conference.
The opposition has accused President Nicolas Maduro of engineering a second term for himself by bringing forward the election from December.
